SOCI 378 - Sociology of Gender

3 Credits
Three hours per week.

In areas such as feminism, gay rights, changing definitions of masculinity, male-female relations, and new roles of women in the workforce, gender socialization, household formation, and domestic affairs, the world is undergoing much change which deserves systematic study from social scientific perspectives. Though this course uses materials primarily from anthropology and sociology to describe and analyze selected dimensions of sex and gender cross-culturally and through time, it has relevance for students in numerous fields of study. [Formerly Sex and Gender in Society and Culture].
